Quiz is a modality, which requires analytical skills to assess and apply information to crack the code of questions. The topic chosen for the Quiz was Cephalometrics, which is a clinical topic. It answers the diagnostic dilemma and is a must in ‘know-how’ syllabus of BDS final year students. For a better understanding of the topic, we need an interactive teaching session. It was observed that this Teaching-Learning (T-L) session assisted our students in remembering important concepts that are targeted by the quiz.
Keywords: Quiz, Cephalometrics, Teaching-Learning techniques, Curriculum
